November 11: Blessed Feast of St. Martin of Tours. This day is one of our favorites to observe. We are reminded of ways to love our neighbors, we pray for our veterans. I also use this day to replace the kid’s supply of socks, slippers or robes, warm items they’ll need for Winter. And we make the cookie we look forward to all year! Almond Horns shaped as Horse Shoes for St. Martin’s horse. Here’s the recipe if you’d like to try it. I replace the almonds with pecans.
November 4: Martin is half a year old! I admit, if I could, I would put 6 months old in a bottle and carry it around in my pocket forever. It’s the butter balliest and there’s that foot holding thing that makes me melt. This months accomplishments: He loves to get on his hands and knees and rock away.
September 4: Martin is Four Months Old now! He’s a happy baby after a couple months of being grumpy. He can roll both ways, sleeps all night and of course loves being held. We love you little man!
